When I put the car in the "on" position the anti theft light stays on solid??I've already mistakenly ..arrgh replaced the fuel pump...not knowing anything about this stupid system figured that was it...darnnit,then figured it was this instead..tried replacing ign switch to no avail,finally went and bought the bypass kit and installed and programmed it...........car will still not start and light is still on?????Any help would be great,TY

You replaced the ignition switch? If I remember correctly there was some type of recall on them. Have you tried the passlock reset procedure of turning the key to the run position (not start) for 10 minutes?

If u changed the ign switch then u changed the resistor value from before and the car is never going to start. Do u still have the old switch to try to get the resitor value?

It might be the wires underneath the radiator from the PCM to the cluster. My 97 sunfire did it in that exact place and same symptoms. The J-body cars are nororious for this.
